I quickly became a fan of the movie Finding Nemo shortly after Pixar released it. I not only liked the story but fell in love with the characters. I don’t know how many times I watched it. I must have watched enough to memorize most of its quotes. I …

The best way to describe the movie “Breach” is a Bourne story without the action. Based on a true story, “Breach” has a great cast of actors Chris Cooper, Ryan Phillippe and Laura Linney. The true pity is that this movie was released in the same year …

When my wife rented Head Over Heels this weekend I thought, “Great, another chick flick.” But, I was pleasantly surprised to find it both funny and charming.
The movie centers around a museum worker who rents a room shared by a bunch of super models. When the museum worker falls …

I tend to like a lot of films, especially drama films which have a historical setting. These films do not necessarily have to be based on a factual story either, and they do not have to be set in the far history like medieval times. This is what attracted …

I usually don’t like these mummy movies. But a friend of mine dragged me out to see this one, and I was not that displeased. I will say that the story itself was kind of charming. There was plenty of action so as not …

I only just saw Staying Alive for the first time recently. I haven’t even seen Saturday Night Fever all the way through. I’ve only seen pieces of it. The stories never intrigued me, but I did wonder a lot about Finola Hughes, who I’ve met at …

This movie …

Produced by Walt Disney and directed by Kevin Lima, the movie Enchanted is truly enchanting. Starring Amy Adams, Patrick Dempsey, Susan Sarandon, and James Marsden, this partly animated fairy tale is the story of a beautiful girl named Giselle (Amy Adams) who sings about finding her true love. Sure …

I almost didn’t finish this movie when I watched it with my friends in September of 2009. It was just released a few days ago, and so the cinema at Strawberry Hills mall here in Surrey, Canada was filled to the rafters.
It was released in 3-D so …

This simple story of two dogs getting together is made all the more unique because it is told from the point of view of the dogs. I found this fact to be charming. There have been many stories done in this manner, but I think Lady and the Tramp …

Rob and I go to a lot of movies, one of our favorite movie theaters is located at Arundel Mills Malls, Hanover MD. We both enjoy the acting capabilities of George Clooney so when we saw the previews for the Leatherheads, we decided that this was one that …

To start, I feel that no amount of words could ever do this movie the justice it deserves…..but nevertheless, I’ll try my best.
In a basic summation, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is the film adaptation of the classic, semi-autobiographical tale written by the late, great Hunter S. Thompson. …

Here is another dvd from my friend’s horror movie dvd collection. He likes old movies from the seventies mostly, and lent me this dvd which he said he was told had some good horror films on it. However, when I watched it I didn’t like the movies at all. …

This is yet another great vampire movie that has more comedic appeal than that of the horror kind. Starring a very young Jim Carrey, he is the object of desire by a female vampire. She targets him and is in the process of converting him mortal flesh into that …

For the sake of candidness I ought to state that I am a big fan of Daft Punk and the original Tron Movie. It is therefore with some bias that I entered the cinema to see Tron Legacy, which announces the arrival of Joseph Kosinski as a new director.
From …

The TV series Tammy was done after three successful theatrical movies with the character of Tammy Tyree had been released. Debbie Reynolds and Sandra Dee had made the character part of the American landscape. Everyone loved the swamp girl who lived on the riverboat with her grandpa. …

The 2008 film “The Dark Knight”, starring a terrific Christian Bale as Batman, and the late Heath Ledger as the Joker, was even better than the first movie, “Batman Begins”. When in comparison, I feel that “The Dark Knight” has so much more power behind it’s actors, even more …

It’s been a while since I’ve seen the sequel to the movie Hot Shots; Hot Shots Part Deux. And I have to admit, after seeing it again this morning, it’s as good as I remember it being.
While the first Hot Shots movie made fun of the film Top Gun, …

I wanted to write about Avatar while it’s still fresh in my mind. I watched it on December 24, 2009 for a hefty fee of $14.99 (that’s how much it costs to watch a full-blown digital 3D movie these days). On second thought, this cost is not …

This is one of Hollywood’s classic movies which tackles a very difficult argument about living life to the full and suicides. What I really like about this movie is Al Pacino excellent performance of the role Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade. It is no doubt that he won the Oscar …

At one point I wondered why there aren’t more eccentric characters in one film. The answer is that they not occur. It seems that you can not cram a young English teacher with bizarre sexual inclinations, an old bearded playwright gigolo and a mechanic with a high voice who …

Even though the movie itself never really became massively popular, I actually remember when the trailer for “How I Love Now” was released. I remember thinking that there were two main reasons why I wanted to see it. The first was because the actress Saoirse Ronan played the protagonist and …

Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore do a wonderful job in pulling off this bright comedy about a couple trying to survive their first home owner’s experience. I thought this film was playful, funny and even a bit telling in how we all sometimes fall for things that are too good …

Practically perfect in every way. That is how Mary Poppins described herself. She might as well have been talking about Disney’s blockbuster movie. Right up front I’d like to point out that my reasons for loving this movie was the music. The music stood out more for me with …

“The Ultimate Gift” is such a good movie, I don’t know where to start reviewing it! The plot is excellent. We’ve got a wealthy old man Red, who leaves a rather unusual will. Before he dies, Red records a series of video messages. In those messages, he talks mostly …

Daddy’s little girls is one of Tyler Perry’s heartwarming movies, about a loving father who is doing all he can for his three little girls. My husband and i watched it together on the couch. I think he cried as much as i did.
Monty (Idris Elba) went to see …

One of Mel Brooks’ many parodies of famous folklore. No one can deny that this movie is comedy at its best. You will be laughing your socks off from start to finish and even after it’s all said and done. Cary Elwes is a true comedian and its due …

I recently borrowed the DVD of the movie “Meet the Spartans” from a friend and watched it with my family. I must say this has to be the second movie after “You Don’t Mess with Zohan” which I would consider as a crappy movie.
The movie was first released …

It was a Korean movie that was funny combined with action and suspense as I watched it. I first came to know this Korean actress named Eun Kyun Shin when she portrayed the role of Mantis as one of the big boss or leader of a gang. I did …

When in Rome disappoints big time and the story flow defies logic even if how liberal I try to think. The story is supposed to be a romantic comedy I guess. But at the end, I wonder to remember a single scene in the movie which made me laugh …

As it turned out, I was only able to view one version of A Christmas Carol this year. Normally, I see several, but scheduling just didn’t work out, not to mention I didn’t notice this Charles Dickens’ classic being shown all that much. This A Christmas Carol …

I have never seen Owen Wilson do quite a serious part such as a soldier/sniper and in this movie he did a very good job, he was a Lieutenant here Gene Hackman was also there as Owen’s admiral and commander. I say Owen did a great part here because …

This strange passion - or “El”, as it is better known - is one my of favorite films by Luis Bunuel. It is about a middle aged man who suffers from paranoia. This disease (as I would call it) is masterfully portraited by Buñuel here, using his own surrealist …

Pirates 1 and 2 were sufficient movies, but perhaps they were riding too much on the originality factor. Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World’s End really feels done before. With the same cast of characters, and dozens more, Pirates 3 seems like a 3 hour family reunion during …

The 1986 film “Pretty in Pink” is one of my all time favorite films! Nothing can beat a story of romance, friendship, and the social hardships that come with surviving high school. This movie reaches out to so many people of all ages, and it was difficult for me …
